Utah county created an oversight panel for prosecutors - a first that, if followed, can change the criminal justice system

A group of residents of the Utah County demanded from the County Commissioners to establish a County Commission to oversee prosecutorial misconduct of county prosecutors - and the County has just announced that it has made its first steps towards establishing such a Commission.

Imagine if such commissions are established throughout the United States, at county levels - reviewing whether prosecutors committed unethical conduct (under the cover of the "absolute immunity" that courts unlawfully give them) - and if actual discipline may be imposed upon prosecutors because of decisions of such panels.

Maybe, just maybe, our criminal justice system will become a little less corrupt.

How about asking your own county for such a panel?
